United Arab Emirates Ambassador to Lebanon, Hamad Said Al Shamsi, mourned the passing away of Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir on Sunday, saying: "In wake of his absence, Lebanon loses an exceptional national and Arab figure who played a pivotal role in establishing peace and tolerance. He was a man of openness and bold positions, and dedicated his life to promoting coexistence among the Lebanese and supporting Lebanon's stability and sovereignty."
Al Shamsi expressed his sincere condolences to Maronite Patriarch Beshara Boutros al-Rahi, the Maronite Church, the late Patriarch's loved ones, and to Lebanon in its leadership authority, government and people."
